    66 mustang and vortech

    Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knew if a 5.0 vortech kit would fit on a 66 with a serpentine belt setup from an 89 5.0?

    Paint issue!! paint peeled when laying stripes

    Now when you clear your stripes on say the hood after putting them on top. Do you re clear the whole hood. Or just the stripes. Because if you need can't sand between coats of clear right. Won't the scratches show through? I'm talking about the rest of the hood. Not where the fresh stripes are

    Paint issue!! paint peeled when laying stripes

    The primer was a polyester heavy fill primer. It was on for about a year before I got to paint. It was sanded before paint though. So that could of been it. As for how we pulled the tape I don't even remember. We had even another few problems. Like the paint and tape seeming to have a reaction...

    Paint issue!! paint peeled when laying stripes

    Yeah can't really figure out why it did it. I really don't want to put the stripes on after the clear. But I don't think I have a choice. Maybe because it was so hot out. 113 later in the day. But we did spray it at 5am. Oh well. It was coming out to easily. Had to hit a snag somewhere

    Car died on freeway

    So quick question if this is normal. With the key in the on position I have 12v on the negative post of the coil. Or well 11.53v. So my question is should I hav voltage on the negative side. Or is this normal because the coil has power and it transfers over?

    Car died on freeway

    So currently I have the new dist. In the car. And I tried hotwiring it basicly which to my understanding should take out alot of the variables that would be causing this issue by bypassing them, but still nothing. Would this prove to me that the problem must be my coil? I was think either that...
